Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods.

Yeah, they can't take two seconds to enjoy the victory they wanted. They have to move on to the next thing to bitch and moan about.

They didn’t want Biden to step down. They wanted him running against Trump and losing.

Pretty much. That way when Trump won, they could say "see? We told you so!"

Much more important than them or people they might care about getting marched into camps.

Exactly.

It's quite insidious.

Today I'm suddenly seeing a lot of "vote blue no matter who", which IMO is intended to stifle enthusiasm for Kamala.

If the left could unite behind a candidate we'd destroy the GOP.

That's not true! I danced a jig when we found out. I was voting against Trump but now I am voting for Harris.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago

Several others are not. Including a person who has been posting anti-Biden articles in this community for months, who has now switched to anti-Harris articles.

They never thought it would happen. They shot themselves in both feet with shotguns. Now they're in panic mode because they're realizing they're really fucked now.
